Esme and Carlisle thought that it would be good for the family bonding to attend to church. They thought it would teach some of their children to behave and to be more patient. Some family time surely wasn't bad at all. It's Sunday morning the service started in 15 minutes. The Cullens and Bella, who decided to join them, were about to leave.

CPOV

I never thought we would do this especially since we're vampires but I see no reason why we shouldn't believe in god. I'm mainly doing this because I want to teach some specific persons from this family some manners. It would be unfair to make just them go so I decided it couldn't hurt us all. Edward was the first who gave in but just because Bella joined first. I didn't see why not. It wouldn't hurt her either. I clearly remember the day I told them.

*Flashback*

"Family meeting" I said blocking my thoughts from Edward. I thought through this all the day in the hospital and decided that this was the best way.

I headed for the dining room and sat down at the head of the table. The others came shortly after me. Rose was fixing her shirt, Emmett put a shirt on, Alice was giggling apparently she saw what was coming, Jasper was slightly confused by the emotions. Edward and Bella came down at human pace. I heard that Bella didn't want to join at first but she belongs to the family.

"Well, since some of us can't behave and talking is pointless, I decided to take some actions. I thought through the options I have to teach you some manners. Well first of all we'll meet once in the week, we'll go through some basic manners and then how I think you should behave in different situations. Bella, if you want to join us you're welcome but you don't have to." I added at the end. "I wouldn't want to miss that. I think I'll join you." she replied. I smiled at her and continued with my speech. "Well, and we're going to attend church." I let the bomb explode. Bella stifled a laugh. "What?" They cried out in disbelieve. "Nice choice, darling. I'm joining you." whispered Esme to me. "Thanks, Esme. I think you heard right, kids." I said. Bella was still trying to stifle her laugh but she couldn't and burst out laughing. They looked at her as if she was crazy. "They...Church... I'm …joining..." she said between laughs. After she calmed down she said to Edward. "You're joining too. It will do you something good. After all I see no reason why a … vampire shouldn't believe in god and even if you don't believe that you have a soul you could still pray for the other souls." She said my thoughts aloud. Edward seem to think though this and then he stated to my and everyones surprise. "You're right. I'm joining, Carlisle." Jasper was thinking about the said too, and then he surprised everyone too with the statement that he's joining too. Of course Alice joined because he did. That left only Rose and Emmett. I think that Emmett was thinking about all the fun he would have as he joined, too. Rose joined, too. Not that they had another chance...

*end of flashback*

Edward was driving the Volvo with Bella, Alice and Jasper while I was driving my Mercedes with Esme, Rosalie and Emmett. In a couple of minutes we were there right in front of the church. Before we entered the church I threatened mainly to Alice, Emmett and Jasper. "If any of you misbehave there will be consequences." I didn't have worries with Edward and Bella they both knew how to behave in church and outside they knew too.

At least we appear human by attending to church. I hope really that they don't embarrass me today. I took the hand from my beautiful wife and opened the door.

EdPOV

At the end I don't think that this is a bad thing to do. It would be good for Bella and like she said perhaps it would do any good to other souls if it's not for mine. We entered church and Carlisle picked a bench in the middle of the church. Bella and I would sit at the very right. Next to me are Alice and Jasper. Then Carlisle and Esme and at the very left of the bench Emmett and Rosalie. At least Emmett and Jasper weren't sitting next to each other. I would have ended in a complete chaos.

Right before the service started we were asked to greet those around us. I greeted a middle-aged woman behind me. Emmett had to greet a old lady in front of him. "Do you come here often?" he asked trying to be polite. "What a question. Old women like her always come often here." Bella whispered in my ear. I suppressed a grin. "WHAT?" the old lady screamed at Emmett. "I asked, DO. YOU. COME. HERE. OFTEN?" He asked again, now enunciating each word clearly. Rose rolled her eyes. "Do I eat plum on a bier?" she asked misunderstanding completely. "No, do you?"

Everyone stifled a laugh even Carlisle.

The service started. We stood up to sing the first hymn. Emmett was singing really loud and didn't hit any note. "Emmett" Esme rebuked. He sang quieter now, but still false. I didn't need the mind reading thing to know that Carlisle and Esme were ashamed. Bella hid her face behind her hymnbook. She tried to sing along and pretended not to know us at all. I can't blame her.

The hymn ended and Bella tried to concentrate on what the pastor was saying.

I read the thoughts of my family.

This is more boring than it sounded but it's for the greater good. Well I hope so. - Jasper

This is going to be a hilarious. Out of my head Edward! - Alice

Emmett is so embarrassing. If he is doing something again today I will be furious. - Esme

The pastor is right with what he's saying. I wish they could behave. - Carlisle

This is so boring. Raising elephants is so utterly boring. - Emmett

This isn't so bad as I thought. But I'd really like to fuck Emmett now.- Rose

Ugh, I could have lived without knowing that. They're all speaking a prayer now, I should really join them. It would be conspicuous if I wouldn't. After that we sat down. Rose was now trying to seduce Emmett. This was clearly not a way to behave in church. I mean hell haven't they learned not to do this kind of things in church? I was about to say something as Carlisle hissed. "Rosalie, don't you dare. It's not allowed to do that while being in church!"

They stopped immediately. Finally. I sighed in relief. Bella didn't recognized anything I think. We were singing again now. Emmett did sing again. I read the priest thoughts.

Who the fuck are they?

What? Did the pastor just swear? Priests can't do that, can they? I'll ask Carlisle.

Wow, the blond one is really pretty, I hate that vow now.

"Rose, put your jacket on. NOW." I hissed and said than to Carlisle in a too low voice for humans to hear. "Priests aren't allowed to swear, are they?" He shook his head. "He did. Well, in his thoughts." I explained. Carlisle's eyes widened a little. And then Alice decided to annoy me.

Edward. Her internal voice called.

Edward.

Edward.

Edward.

"WHAT?" I asked loudly. The people about 5 rows and the pastor turned to me. Oops. That was too loud. "Sorry" I apologized quietly. If I could I would be a deep red by now. Can't I just sink in the ground? The accusatory glance from Bella and the disappointed looks from my parents didn't make it better.

Alice was shaking from suppressed laughter. I glared at her. It was all her fault. I was now ignoring all the thoughts and didn't let my eyes wander anywhere but the pastor, the hymnbook or the ground.

CPOV

"WHAT?" Edward almost yelled. I turned towards him in great surprise. I expected him to behave. The people from 5 rows and the pastor turned towards us. I'm so embarrassed and disappointed but I can see Edward would like to sink in the ground. He regrets it by now he wouldn't need a punishment but I have to stay fair. But it's always not so bad if you regret it. The poor boy kept his eyes now either at the pastor or at the hymnbook or just the ground. He wouldn't embarrass me today again.

I don't need to read Emmett's or Jasper's mind to know they are bored. Hopefully they don't do something stupid.

JPOV

I'm bored. What is a gift if you can't use it? I have an idea. An brilliant idea. I was now sending waves of lust towards a old couple two rows in front of us. They now having a full make-out session. Carlisle was pissed. Actually more than pissed. "Jasper, stop it, now!" he hissed under his breath. I stopped. But by that time the priest had recovered from his shock and came up and taped on the mans shoulder to tell him that this was not appropriate behavior for a church service.

Everyone was shocked. This was expected by teenager but not by such a old couple. But it was a real hilarious.

Everyone was amused except Carlisle and Esme.

BPOV

I was just trying to be a good example and tried to pay attention to the priest. But it was really hard. Edward thinks I don't recognized anything but he's wrong.

My thoughts were interrupted by Emmett and Rosalie standing up in the middle of the service and they left. I'm sure they aren't going off to bake a cake. I can't believe it in the middle of the church. I think that Carlisle is really furious behind his calm mask. A few minutes later they came back. They put really the quick in quickie.

Finally it was quiet, everyone looked at the priest as he hold up the chalice and the host. Emmett thanks to god didn't laugh or anything as the priest said that about the blood of Christ. Now the priest was handing out the communion wafer.

"They're giving away candy!" Emmett said. "It's not candy, dumbass. It's Jesus." Rosalie replied. Wow, she paid attention. "Jesus candy?" "No." I stood up to get one as I was taught. Carlisle smiled at me. "Anyhow I want one" Emmett said and stood up too. Facepalm is the only thing I can think of right now.

After a few minutes the priest got to Emmett and offered him the Body of Christ. He replied "No thanks, I'm allergic. Oh and you do know that's not actually a body, right? It's just a wafer." Holy... Sorry. No way he did this. I pretend not to know him and shook my head in disbelieve. But although the look on the priests face was priceless.

I was glad that the service was about to end. I don't think I can hold my laughters any longer. 10 minutes to go.

Well church is over now and the only thing I have got to say is 'Amen'.

We were about to leave as the priest came to us. "You must be new. It's nice to see young people still attend to church. Anyhow I wanted to say welcome. I'm pastor Weber." He said. "Nice to meet you, pastor Weber. I'm Dr Carlisle Cullen. This is my wife Esme and our children Emmett, Rosalie, Jasper, Alice and Edward. The girl beside Edward is his girlfriend Isabella Swan. We're planning to come more often than before. I think it's necessary at such a young age." Carlisle explained. "It's good to have the guidance from god for all of you. I'm sorry I have to leave now. I hope to see you soon." And with that he left. As we stepped out of the church I broke down in laughters. I couldn't breath anymore and then I'm literally rolling on the floor laughing so hard that I almost wet myself.

EdPOV

Bella had begun laughing as soon as we stepped out of the church.. She had a red face and I could tell that she has trouble with breathing. But she couldn't calm down. She laughed and laughed. We were all standing around her and watched her amused as she begun to roll on the floor still laughing. She hit the ground and hold her stomach which had to hurt by now. After I think 5 minutes of power laughing she slowly calmed down. She was now concentrating on breathing deep. "We can leave now" she said as if nothing had happened. She stood up and removed the dirt from her. Still holding her stomach she said as we were walking towards the cars. "I'm sorry, but I just couldn't hold it anymore. I didn't mean it but it was just such a hilarious." "It's quite okay, at least you didn't laugh in church." responded Carlisle. "I was raised not to do this in church by my mum. She had a time in which she was really into church, I don't know what happened but she quited going a few years later. I tried to go to church as much as I could but when I moved here I didn't even knew that there is a church in Forks. I'm happy to be able to attend again."

We decided to have that meeting to learn some manners also on Sundays because there is plenty of unused time.

BPOV

My stomach was already hurting and we haven't had that behavior lesson. Oh dear, I think this is the funniest day of my life till now. I remember when we told Charlie what Carlisle wanted us to do.

*flashback*

We were sitting at dinner after that particular meeting. I decided to ask Charlie now if he was okay with what I'm going to do Sundays from now on. I'm quite sure he will be okay with it.

"We've got a interesting conversation with Carlisle today. Well, Emmett and Jasper have done something stupid again and Carlisle thought it's time to teach them manners. It's quite a hilarious. They're all having lessons about manners every week with Carlisle and Esme and they're going to attend to church." Charlie burst out laughing. He, I was sure, laughed at least a minute. "Well, and I really don't want to miss it. Perhaps I can learn something myself. Well are you okay with it if I'm going to join them?" "If you want to." Charlie said still chuckling.

*end of flashback*

This just can end being incredibly funny. I fought already with laughters by just imaging it.

CPOV

I can see from here that Bella already has to suppress her laughter before I even started. Well, I can't blame her. If I shouldn't be the serious parent here I would have died of laughing about this mess. Well back to business…

END-FIN-ENDE-FINAL-FINE

I'll leave it here for now. I don't know what you think about it but I think it is kind of funny.

I'm sorry for any mistakes, but English isn't my mother language. I'm sorry and please tell me about my mistakes so I can get better. Well, I have final exams in English in a month so I'm grateful for any help. I'm actually writing this to learn more English and for fun.

If there are any similar or almost similar thing to another fanfiction than I'm sorry but I must have remember reading it but forgot that it was from another fanfiction. I'm truly sorry if it has happened or will happen in the future.

Okay, well, I hope you had a little fun. I certainly had while writing this. I don't know if this is any good so if you want me to continue than please review.

I always thought that Carlisle must have a little left from his human days and as a son of an pastor.

Well also I'm not trying to offend anyone and I can assure you I'm Catholic myself. So no offense.
